City Updates
Burke Engineering is reviewing a number of flooded homes. The Geneva area has 8-12 homes and Pine Street has 18-26 homes. Also discussed was the feasibility of phasing in the two basins at York Commons and providing ice skating at York Commons.
General
A portion of the meeting centered around discussing the City's progress concerning changes to building codes, ordinances, and other regulations as they may relate to the "upstream" cause of flooding as part of the City's master plan. As a result of that discussion, City staff prepared a memorandum that provides an update on the City's progress to date in addressing stormwater issues. City staff also provided a copy of the memorandum presented to the City Council last week concerning a New Single Family Home Stormwater Management Policy. The Council subsequently approved the new policy. Copies of both documents are available below. There are currently 41 homes under construction and 20 pending in Elmhurst.
